I expect dismal turnout, as always in off-year New Jersey elections, but even more so with the weather forecast. Weirdly, it's rained three years in a row on election day here.
I have no doubt that the legislature will stay majority Democratic in both chambers, I just really don't want my Councilman, Chris DiPiazza, to win a seat in my Assembly district. I actually went to middle school with him, he was kind of an arrogant prick, if I'm being honest. Back then, he gave me a scar on my lip when he idiotically zipped the sweatshirt I was wearing all the way up to my lip, causing it to gush blood to the point of leaving a scar. I didn't cry or resent him for that. I was mostly just confused about why he did that for seemingly no reason. I mean, who even does that?That's not why I don't want him to win though, it's because he's a Republican, and apparently a very ambitious one. My district is usually solidly Democratic, but in an off-year election with low turnout like this, he or the other Republican he is running with could possibly win. They are already winning the lawn sign campaign.
My dad always zips my jackets too far up.
